Elise Don has been praised as beautiful ever since she was a child.
She knows her own temper; it's definitely not the type that people find likable, so the word "cute" has never been associated with Elise Don.
Not only has it never been associated, but if anyone were to praise her as cute, Elise Don might think they were blind—can't they see how beautiful she is? Calling her cute is an attempt to cover up her beauty.
But today, Oliver Bloom broke this rule. The "cute" from his mouth was sincere, neither a perfunctory compliment when there's nothing else to praise nor a disregard for her beauty.
He just simply thinks she's cute.
Elise Don sat in the porridge shop, watching the tall figure at the front counter ordering. Sweetly, she thought, this man is so good at charming without even realizing it. By instinct alone, he makes her blush, her heart race, and her legs go weak. If he ever got serious about it...
Just thinking about it makes her want to scream.
